Nebulizers, Spray Chambers, Injectors and Torches
MicroFlow PFA Nebulizers
Elemental Scientific offers three basic types of PFA nebulizers: the integrated capillary
PFA series, the removable capillary PFA series, and the integrated autosampler probe
series. All these nebulizers offer the same characteristics:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
All-Teflon® construction
Chemically resistant – ideal for strong acids, alkalis, organics
Resistant to clogging – reliably self-aspirated or pumped
Low, spike-free background for important elements such as Fe and Ca
Produces a fine aerosol for high transport efficiency and high sensitivity
Analyze all sample types with a single introduction system
Direct analysis of volatile and non-volatile organic solvents
Directly replace any 6 mm (Meinhard) type nebulizer
PolyPro Nebulizers
The PolyPro nebulizer is a low-cost HF resistant alternative to the MicroFlow PFA nebulizer. The PolyPro has
lower chemical resistance and slightly higher background levels than the MicroFlow PFA nebulizer, but is a robust
nebulizer for many applications where the ultimate detection limits are not critical, including ICPAES.
